Book Description:
Skyler was a test subject, and the Lab was his home. Carefully attended to by physicians, he never had a reason to leave the Lab. Until he found one of the other test subjects dead; with his heart removed.

Jude was a journalist, and New York was his beat. Always looking for a good story, he was intrigued by the police's latest discovery. A murder victim with its face and fingerprints removed.

Skyler escapes. Jude investigates. And now, united by the mysteries of science and murder, the two men are forced to make sense of one startling, seemingly impossible fact; they share the same face.

"As compelling as Robert B. Parker's Spenser or Patricia Cornwell's Kay Scarpetta...Complex and original...Absorbing." New York Times

Great sci-fi book! Medical science type. Cloning, murder, deceit. Enjoyed it very much.

I was surprised to find I really enjoyed this book, as I usually don't read this type. Plenty of action, although it does move a bit slow a few times. Sort of X-Files creepy. Although it's kind of sci-fi, it seems like something that could be happening now. It will make you think.

good read. unusual plot.

Sharon Z. (intothenite) reviewed 5/26/2006...

A few nice twists, but overall somewhat predictable. Good book for wasting away a rainy day.
